SO happy to finally own this phenomenal necklace!
This was the first item I put on my personal wishlist when I discovered Novica in 2018. In 2020 I decided to purchase it for myself as a birthday gift and could not possibly be happier with it! I absolutely adore the character story provided about the symbolism of the necklace. As another reviewer has mentioned, Mariana Llanes is a truly talented artisan! This necklace lays perfectly when worn and is so beautifully unique. Thank you so very, very much to both Mariana Llanes and Novica!
Butterfly Taxco Silver Statement Necklace, 'Monarc
6 years ago I bought a single monarch butterfly pendant from this artist. Years and many experiences later, this new one symbolizes the triumph of the cycle of life. It was a delight to pull out of the package. There is no question to its quality. The silver is thick and detailed. The two hanging butterflies have wings that are lifted up at a slight angle, not just flat – an extra design element. All butterfly wings have very nice detail. Note that the necklace chain and the chain of the two hanging butterflies are of two different links, this may bother some, but it all blends nicely in person. This artist does quality work. Don’t worry about the appropriateness of wearing if you are post 40 – it’s not a teenager cheap look at all and will make you very happy to wear.
